Waterfall

by Ortega Fuerte

/

lyrics

Every time I want to come back home,
I worry I'm better off alone.
Looking back, I never thought I'd see
A day you'd recognize yourself inside of me.

You're all I see,
Reflected in the waterfall
So take me back and tell me everything
And it must be
That you were with me after all
All this time that I spent wondering:
Could it be?
It must be.

There were times when I was far away
I felt that tether growing weaker every day.
Broken glass, on your kitchen floor.
I didn't know if I could feel you anymore.

There were rushes and a wind, somewhere the spring had crept inside
And filled the cracks, the moss was creeping,
Orchids blooming in our minds;
A vernal pool, a humid day
I feel a splash refracted through
The echoes of the past replaced
I feel them beckoning me back to you...

A winter's day, and up the hill
I felt your presence there, I know I always will.
Among the stones, for just a little while.
As long as I can see you close your eyes and smile.
